With 2^20 entries, your actual limit of 2^19 entries in root node will probably show us quite different numbers for order-1,2,3,4... tnodes > > Something like where you have resizable hash where is each bucket in turn > is a resizable hash etc. Yes, numbers you gave us basically showed a big root node, and mainly leaves and very few tnodes. I was interested to see the distribution in case the root-node limit is hit, and we load into the table a *lot* of entries. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
